Asa "Mercer" Turner (the Trevor Lawrence of WC DBs), 4* 2019 S, Carlsbad (HS), CA (Committed)

In this interview at the Poly bowl he is specifically asked about what "wowed" him on his Notre Dame visit. His answer...the weather being nicer than he expected and going to Brian Kelly's lake house and riding jet skis and stuff on a beautiful day. That's exactly what I was talking about. I was right. Weather on his official visits was a factor here. He got to see Notre Dame on a beautiful day and only saw UW the one shit weather weekend of the entire fucking Summer. Brian Kelly made more of an effort by rolling out the red carpet and throwing a party at his lake house where as UW just took him and his family out to dinner. I was on the fucking money with my criticism of his recruitment by the UW coaches. Eat shit you shit talking motherfuckers!

Thankfully it looks like UW will still win out but the weather he experienced on each of his official visits was a factor in this recruitment. Notre Dame gaining the edge for that factor helped keep them in it because he has still yet to see Seattle and UW in all their glory on a beautiful day. Not saying it was the critical factor at all. It appears his preferred position being safety is the critical factor. But it was a factor.

Weather was not shitty the entire weekend. Thats from Lake during Asa official visit. So please FOH with the weather excuse

He said it out of his own mouth bro. There's another picture of him outdoors on his visit to UW and it's completely overcast and dark. He's a Cali bro used to the sunshine and beach. If he had visited Notre Dame with the weather being what it is in South Bend today, he would have already been signed to UW. It's a factor bro. Might seem stupid to you and others but this is how 17 year olds think.

You're right. The forecast high of -12 in South Bend this Weds is really appealing weather. There is this thing called the internet that allows one to easily research shit like the weather.

A recruits perception of a University is shaped on his visit to that University. In his minds eye, Asa's vision of Notre Dame was and has always been based on the beautiful environment he experienced on his visit to Notre Dame. That's what matters. The 48 hour mirage that are official visits. Knowing it gets stupid cold in South Bend in the Winter and actually experiencing it are two totally different things.

Why is it so hard for you to fucking understand? It's like, yeah no shit a recruits experience on his official visit to a school is important and better weather on that visit is always better. It's not difficult or at all a stretch. I've seen posts here and elsewhere saying "thank god the weather cleared up" this weekend in Seattle for UW's last big official visit weekend. Gee I wonder why people would say that der der der.

Asa literally just fucking told you in that interview that yeah, getting to see Notre Dame when the weather was great as opposed to the freezing cold was something he liked a lot about his visit there. EVERYTHING MATTERS!

You need to worry about stuff that UW can control. Weather isn't one of them.

YET

I can’t seem to find his commitment tweet, all I see is a bunch of doogs acting like bagmen don’t exist
 
The latest: Turner will commit when he’s ready

The ole Jimmy Lake is gonzo soon has got him thinking....again

Transfer Portal will apply here
 
One might think after Asa jerked the UW staff around in the first signing period that he might want to make a very public declaration of his loyalty to the UW to mend fences and assuage anxieties among fans... like he keeps saying he's going to do but somehow never does.

Turner poasted this after he allegedly told the coaching staffs where he was going and that he would announce his decision publicaly. Then he didn’t

Perhaps he has not realized that "the journey" is only in his own crazy fucking brain.
 
Imagine Julius Irvin playing safety but being such a good cover guy, he gets rolled down to do all sorts of crazy slot corner or corner shit like Budda did. Then Asa Turner playing safety but being so big, he gets rolled down to do all sorts of crazy LB shit in the seam and against TE’s like Rapp did. And then over the top of them you have Cam Williams and his crazy get it and go centerfield instincts behind those two guys which gives Irvin and turner more confidence to play aggressive because they know Cam has their back.
